MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious Link

The PDF contains a large number of external links, identified by the PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic, suggesting a link farm or redirection to malicious content. The ML classifier also strongly indicated maliciousness. The document body, though partially corrupted, contains text related to calendar history and the wkhtmltopdf tool, which is likely a lure to disguise the malicious intent of hosting numerous external links.
